Tabletop & trends
People enjoy sitting at a table set in soft colours for a while longer. No wonder, because according to colour psychology, pastel colours have a calming and relaxing effect. In combination with white or grey tones, pastel shades look confident and elegant. On top of that, they bring trendy retro flair to the table. Monochrome in a uniform tone-on-tone look or lively combinations – the light colours make new table arrangements possible again and again.

Creative design
When painting, crafting and decorating, the variety of shapes and colours knows no bounds. The pastel colour palette plays a major role in creative design and can be used in many different ways. Incidentally, the term “pastel” comes from painting and refers to a technique in which pigment chalk is used to paint on mostly rough paper. Artists were already using pastel chalks for their sketches in the 15th century.
